By André Revil,Abderrahim Jardani

The self-potential approach permits non-intrusive evaluation and imaging of disturbances in electric currents of conductive subsurface fabrics. It has a growing number of functions, from mapping fluid stream within the subsurface of the Earth to detecting preferential move paths in earth dams and embankments. This booklet offers the 1st complete assessment of the basic innovations of this system and its functions within the box. It discusses a old point of view, laboratory investigations undertaken, the inverse challenge and seismoelectric coupling, and concludes with the appliance of the self-potential strategy to geohazards, water assets and hydrothermal structures. bankruptcy workouts, on-line datasets and analytical software program permit the reader to place the idea into perform. This ebook is a key reference for tutorial researchers and execs operating within the components of geophysics, environmental technology, hydrology and geotechnical engineering. it is going to even be worthy analyzing for comparable graduate courses.
